I know these are available, i.e. something like:

"wms_metadataurl_format" "text/xml"
"wms_metadataurl_href"   "http://host/metadata.xml"
"wms_dataurl_format"     "text/html"
"wms_dataurl_href"       "http://host/data.html"

...this is supported by MapServer's Web Map Context Documents (WMC)
support, but not in WMS or WFS yet for Capabilities.
